print table met php

Goedendag allemaal, ik heb me net aangemeld bij phphulp, ik zit met klein probleempje, ik probeer een paar kleine script te combineren maar ben niet echt thuis in php.
Ik heb een map op de server met thumbs die ik op een pagina wil tonen in een table van 4 cols en 4 rows, het script zelf werkt, alleen worden de thumbs in 1 col weergegeven en niet in 4.
Ik zit ergens fout met dit stuk,
echo "<table>";
echo "<tr colspan=4>";
echo "<td rowspan=4>";
print $gallery;
echo "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "</table>";
Geen idee hoe ik het precies moet plaatsen in het script.
Ik hoop dat iemand mij kan helpen om dit werkend tekrijgen.
Dit is het scriptje.


<?php
$result=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM logger WHERE approved='yes' AND '".time()."'>=time ORDER BY $order_by $order LIMIT $amount") or die(mysql_error());
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$ratebox="
<form action=rate.php?a=rate&amp;id=$row[id] method=post>
<select name=rate onChange='this.form.submit();'>
<option selected>Rate</option>
<option value='10'>Best 10>></option>
<option value='9'>9</option>
<option value='8'>8</option>
<option value='7'>7</option>
<option value='6'>6</option>
<option value='5'>5</option>
<option value='4'>4</option>
<option value='3'>3</option>
<option value='2'>2</option>
<option value='1'><<1 Worst</option>
</select>
</form>
";
if($row[ratedtally]=="0"){$rating="No Rating";}else{$rating=substr(($row[ratedtotal]/$row[ratedtally]), 0, 3);}
$result2=mysql_query("SELECT linkid FROM logger_comments WHERE linkid=$row[id]");
$comments=mysql_num_rows($result2);
$date=date("$date_format",$row[time]);
$description=nl2br($row[description]);
$temp=file_get_contents("templates/template-top-blog.php");
$gallery=str_replace("%url%",substr($row[url],0,$max_url_chars),$temp);
$gallery=str_replace("%urltogallery%","$script_url/index.php?gal=$row[id]",$gallery);
$gallery=str_replace("%commentsurl%","$script_url/comments.php?id=$row[id]",$gallery);

$gallery=str_replace("%title%",htmlentities($row[title]),$gallery);
$gallery=str_replace("%seotitle%","".urlencode($row[title])."",$gallery);
$gallery=str_replace("%description%","$description",$gallery);

$gallery=str_replace("%ratebox%","$ratebox",$gallery);
$gallery=str_replace("%imageurl%",$script_url.$images_path.$row[imgname],$gallery);
echo "<table>";
echo "<tr colspan=4>";
echo "<td rowspan=4>";
print $gallery;
echo "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "</table>";
